Forced medical procedures is fascism. We didn't have that here in Florida.
Nor is telling teachers what they can and cannot say in the classroom because you think that LGBTQ ppl are icky.
It's also got healthier citizens, beautiful diversity of land and people, higher taxes that provide more and better services, and less government interference in the people's personal lives.

Nah, you were just forced to stay home and sleep in your PPE because your fellow citizens wouldn't stop coughing their COVID cooties in each other's faces. Freedumb!
BINGO!! I believe this to be 100% true. 100%.
I can buy a firearm with minimal regulation in Florida.
I have to jump through governmental hoops to buy one on California … and it might not be the type of firearm I want.
I can make improvements/changes to my property or house in Florida with minimal or limited government regulation.
I have to navigate a governmental gauntlet to do the same in California.
Just a couple of examples from the other side of the fence … off of the top of my head
You see, here is where you are ignorant as to what freedom is... Why you believe "allows someone to live comfortably" is not a valid limit to freedom. What is comfortable to you is different than what is comfortable to another.
Not to mention that some do not want to "live comfortably"
Freedom, is about not deciding for others how they should live their lives.
Except I believe you would limit the availability of “certain” choices. If not you personally, some politicians you might support.

I believe you could apply the bolded equally to both sides…but that’s just me.
Interesting, because any place that has an HOA, Florida, California, Texas, etc. in order to do work on your property, you must have permission from your HOA.
Different types of freedom, but yes both places limit freedom in different ways. There is always a limit to freedom, but Florida is not "the free State", and California is not unfree. DeSantis is playing culture wars when he tries to present it like that.
I have never said we have a right to full freedom. I believe you would limit the availability of "certain" choices also. You are not an anarchist are you?
